Minimum wage (£25k) job with relatively high career growth opportunities in the future, or £29.5k job with unknown career growth opportunities?
Having graduated from university last year, and working in an industry that really wasn’t for me from Sept-Dec last year, I have been out of work since January. After 4 months, I’ve started getting a few final-stage interviews. I currently have 2 scheduled.
One is an admin job with a large law/business/professional services firm. The pay is minimum wage (£25k), but there are lots of opportunities to move up internally after just 1 year. The role was even described in the initial Microsoft Teams interview as a “get your foot in the door – type role”.
The other role is a college engagement administrator with a large university (actually the uni I studied at). The pay is £29.5k, but i have no idea if there would be opportunities to climb the ladder internally, and it’s unclear what job I would hop to from that role in the future.
I am going to do both interviews, but if I get offers from both, then I am struggling to decide which would be the better decision. Please any advice would be appreciated.

Personally I’m skeptical of jobs that claim you’ll move up/get paid more in a short timeframe. In my experience there’ll be some excuse in a year that means it doesn’t happen (they don’t have the budget for pay rises/the role is no longer available/you need more experience). I also know a few people who stayed with the first company I worked for and their salaries for senior roles were worse than what I got in a more junior role by moving to a different company. Loyalty doesn’t really pay off now.
While I’d probably take the higher paid job, I’d look at other things as well as pay – length of commute, hours expected to work, annual leave entitlement, how you feel you’d fit with the company and your actual interest in the job role.

Trying to climb the ladder internally is not great. You may have better job titles but the pay increase will be crap. Difference between earning £29.5k and £25k is massive. £25k is honestly upsetting, especially for a big company.
